Chapter 57 Excellent performance in the finals
The World Cup finals are in full swing.
After entering the quarter-finals, the overall intensity and intensity of the competition also increased rapidly.
The first quarter-final was a big battle.
France vs Argentina.
The new French team led by Deschamps faced the Pampas Eagles from South America.
This is definitely a fight between the dragons and the tigers.
The course of the game was also full of ups and downs. France and Argentina had a period of dominance, but both sides would break their existing advantages and regain control of the rhythm of the game.
A total of 7 goals were scored in the entire 90 minutes of the game.
In the end, the French team won Argentina 4:3.
And this game has become Mbappe's absolute fame.
The image of French teenager Mbappé directly piercing the Argentine defense with a violent pass appeared more than once during the game. It can be said that a large part of the French team's victory in this game was contributed by Mbappe.
And Mbappe also became the focus of the world after this game.
Mbappe, who was already well-known in Europe, became a household superstar through the World Cup stage.
Mbappe's current popularity is simply unmatched.
With the French team's consecutive victories and the enthusiasm of eliminating Argentina, Mbappe has become a popular player offline.
"I knew this guy wouldn't be able to stop at the World Cup!"
Chen Man said with a grin.
I once played against Mbappe during the Paris Saint-Germain era. At that time, Chen Man wanted to constantly retreat to defend at Klopp's request.
Krupp even hated to put Chen Man in the full-back position, using speed to fight against speed.
But to be honest, even Chen Man cannot compete with Mbappe in terms of explosive power.
And judging from the performance of this World Cup, this guy has become faster, his body has become stronger, and his skills have become more perfect. It can be said that all aspects have been strengthened.
“The French team is very popular this year!”
Lucky said simply.
Today is July 2nd, and there will be two games between Brazil and Belgium in the evening.
After this game is over, it will be the Chinese team's turn to play the next day.
In the knockout stage of the World Cup, one game will definitely lead to elimination and promotion issues.
It can be said that the competition system is quite cruel.
The outcome of a game depends on the 90 minutes of the game. There is no room for adjustment and no chance for error.
The four teams currently advancing to the quarterfinals are France, Uruguay, Russia and Croatia.
Portugal and Spain were eliminated in the quarter-finals.
Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi left the World Cup stage, which has become a helpless feeling for many people.
However, the World Cup will still continue, and I don’t think that the departure of certain individuals will affect too many factors.
In the evening game, the players of the Chinese team did not pay attention.
After all, they need to compete the next day, so they need to go to bed early and be energetic.
However, there are also some players who are secretly paying attention to this game.
Lucky lay down very early, but soon heard sparse sounds in the house.
When he got up and walked out of the room, he saw Chen Man wrapped in quilt, lowered the TV sound to the lowest volume, and looked at Lucai with a smile.
"Are you awake?"
Chen Man pointed at the TV and said, "I really can't sleep with this."
Lucky sighed and said, "Me too."
After saying that, Le Kai sat next to Chen Man.
When the latter saw Lucky's behavior, he immediately gave up and lowered his voice to a normal volume.
The two began to watch the Belgium VS Japan match.
At first, both of them looked relatively relaxed.
But halfway through, Chen Man looked shocked.
Because the score dropped 2:0.
The Japanese team actually led 2:0.
Lucky's eyes also became serious.
If the situation develops normally, Belgium will score three goals in a row in the second half, but with the current performance of the Japanese team, it is not certain.
After entering the second half, the game became more intense.
The Japanese team has a strong will to fight, and their performance on the World Cup stage has always been worthy of recognition.
Moreover, after taking a two-goal lead, the Japanese team still did not completely shrink its defense. As long as it found an opportunity to counterattack, it would still attack Belgium.
At the same time, the European Red Devils and Belgium also began to exert their strength.
With players such as Lukaku, De Bruyne, Hazard, Kompany, and Vertonghen, Belgium can be said to have the most gorgeous lineup in the World Cup.
However, due to the perennial internal strife in Belgium, it is always impossible to get an unity.
In this game, at least in the first half, Belgium's passing always gave people a strange feeling.
But after entering the second half, this feeling became dull.
Maybe they also reached some kind of agreement.
However, the pressure of being two goals behind still puts Belgium in an extremely passive situation.
Finally, in the 74th minute, De Bruyne connected with Hazard, passing and breaking, and finally Hazard scored from a small angle and equalized the goal.
The goal was a relief for Belgium.
"Japan has let down its guard!"
Chen said slowly.
Lucky shook his head; "It's not that we let down our guard, but that Belgium played their passing game well."
De Bruyne and Hazard are hilarious to talk about.
As the first and second captain of the team.
They are also Belgians, but they speak two languages, one is Dutch and the other is French.
Ethnic conflicts have also become somewhat irreconcilable.
Although some accommodation is sometimes achieved, in most cases opposition is the theme.
And now there are only a few cases where adjustment has been achieved.
And it may be that Japan forced Belgium to cooperate.
After all, no one wants the World Cup to end so hastily every four years.
This is especially true for the European Red Devils, who are known as Belgium's "golden generation".
After the goal, Belgium's offense became more and more fierce.
But after conceding the ball, the Japanese team also began to actively defend.
Although Japan began to focus on defense and desperately wanted to hold on to the score, Japan's fighting will was extremely tenacious.
While blocking the opponent's offense again and again, the Japanese team also began to adopt some foul tactics to limit Belgium's offense.
But even so, the pressure on the Japanese team is still great.
"Xiao Ri X is really capable!"
Chen Man made sarcastic remarks, but his face twitched, which showed that he could also see the defensive pressure the Japanese team was under.
After all, the opposite side is Belgium.
Belgium's offensive pressure is not something that ordinary teams can withstand.
And now Belgium is still working together.
Time passed little by little.
The 90 minutes quickly entered.
"Do we really want to play overtime?"
Chen Man looked surprised.
Lucky still remained silent.
But the situation was crazier than Chen Man expected.
The Japanese team came close to surviving the overtime, and also had a valuable opportunity for a penalty shootout.
It can be said that at this point, the chances are half and half.
Anyone can advance to the quarterfinals.
The Japanese team is infinitely close to reaching the quarterfinals for the first time in their history.
However, after five rounds of penalty kicks, Belgium, still guided by experience, defeated the Japanese team 5-3 on penalty kicks.
After a 90-minute game, the Japanese team finally missed the quarterfinals of the World Cup.
But for any fan watching this game, it is worthy of emotion.
After all, in the first half, the Japanese team scored two goals in a row and almost overturned the super strong team Belgium.
But he still lacked the foundation and stopped at the last moment.
But even so, for any fan in Asia or even the world, they mostly gave a positive attitude towards Japan in this game.
At the same time, the pressure also came to the Chinese team.
As Japan was eliminated, the Chinese team became the only Asian team in the entire World Cup.
They will play against Switzerland tomorrow to ultimately decide who will qualify for the quarterfinals.
The next morning, the atmosphere in the restaurant was a bit depressing.
The Chinese players all looked solemn.
Although there was pressure before the game, it was actually more affected by last night's game.
Although Lippi asked the players to rest early, how could they possibly sleep?
After some disobedient guys watched the game, it was even more difficult for them to sleep.
Especially after the Japanese team had a wonderful performance, the pressure came to them instantly.
Today, the Chinese team also ushered in the quarter-finals of the World Cup. They will play a key match against Switzerland today.
The key battle to decide on advancing to the quarterfinals of the World Cup!
